Biden just called Satchel Paige "the great negro", but the press is splaining it away. Yeah, but it's still an awkward position to find himself in.

The age joke that Biden tried to tell the Pope was plagiarized from Satchel Paige too.

Cleveland Indians
On July 7, 1948, Cleveland Indians owner Bill Veeck brought Paige in to try out with Indians player-coach Lou Boudreau. On that same day, his 42nd birthday, Paige signed his first major league contract, for $40,000 for the three months remaining in the season, becoming the first black pitcher in the American League and the seventh black big leaguer overall. On July 9, 1948, Paige became the oldest man ever to debut in the major leagues, at the age of 42 years and two days. When asked about his age, he would reply "If someone asked you how old you were and you didn't know your age, how old would you think you were?"

I was thinking about commenting on this shortage. What I was going to say was pretty much already covered, though.

What shortage?
Henry Hub has plenty of natural gas and Cushing Hub still has plenty of crude oil.
Refining capacity is more than adequate as well.
